Insights on @Twitter
The youth segment nowadays preferred to read “What other people think” on their timeline rather than invitation
or encouragement that says “lets do something together”. That’s why, a person, figure, or account that gives more
tweet on fact and opinion gets more Retweeted than account that try to push people to do something.

Most Retweeted Account
From this chart we know that among among the
accounts that are followed by the young people,
Tiffatul Sembiring or what they call “tiffy” is the
most retweeted acount. The interesting part, it
doesn’t came from the substantions of his tweet
but the intention of his audience to mock him.
This unique behavior has been creating
conformity among youth. On the other side, Mr.
Pramono Anung, a parliamentary member is one
politician that has been creating positive buzz
among his followers due to his tweet contents
that more grounded and down to earth.

Movement accounts are found to be retweeted
quite intesively by their youth followers. It proves
that our young people really need a platform or
community to share their ideas and to contribute,
even in social media. Due to lack of offline media
that facilitate it
